In a probable embodiment, the shape thereof is ellipsoid or it is in the form of a rectangle wherein there is a circle arc.
In even another preferred embodiment of the invention, at least one depression is provided at the bearing portion at a vicinity of the groove. The depression which is at the vicinity of the groove provides an additional resistance against the door load at the bearing portion.
In a concomitant preferred embodiment of the invention the machine for laundry care is a washing machine.
Characteristics and advantages of the invention are now described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments as shown in the Figures of the appended drawing.
In Figure 1 , the perspective view of a front loading washing machine comprising a representative embodiment of the subject matter front panel is given. In Figure 2, the rear perspective view of a hinge is given which is used in the front loading washing machine illustrated in Figure 1.
In Figure 3, the frontal detailed view of the bearing portion of a front panel is given, where said front panel is given in the embodiment illustrated in Figure 1.
In Figure 4, the rear detailed view of the embodiment illustrated in Figure 3 is given.
In Figure 1 , the perspective view of an example machine 1 for laundry care embodied in a front loading washing machine 1 is illustrated. A front panel 10 with thin plate form forms the front face of the washing machine 1 which has a rectangular prism form. A door 40 opening outwardly from the front surface 12 of a front panel 10 is added to a seat portion 20 of the front panel 10 by means of a hinge 30. The hinge's 30 position on the seat portion 20 is close to the lateral edge of the front panel 10 and it is substantially parallel said lateral edge. In the present embodiment, the hinge 30 is in the seat portion's 20 closest part to the lateral edge 17.
The seat portion 20 is at the periphery of a door opening 16 through which the door 40 passes and which exists in the middle parts of the front panel 10. In the present application, the door opening 16 is circular. The seat portion 20 encompassing this is a
circular flange with offset which is obtained by the bending of the door opening periphery of the front panel 10, where said bending is inward the washing machine 1 . When the door 40 is closed, a frame 42 encompassing the periphery of the glass rests onto the seat portion 20 from the inner surface thereof.
In Figure 2, the perspective view of a hinge 30 is given, where the hinge faces the surface where it is assembled. The hinge 30 comprises a base 31 in a flat bar form and in spring form which is compliant to the diameter of the seat portion 20; an arm 35 extending outwardly from the base 31 ; and assembly elements. In order for the base 31 to be fixed to the seat portion 20, there is one each opening 32 on the upper and lower ends thereof. Moreover, there is one each hook 34 between the openings 32, where the ends of said hooks 34 face downward. One each arms 35 which are positioned in the vicinity of the ends of the base 31 and where one is placed above and where one is placed below have one each pins 36 which are opposite to each other and which face outwardly. The door 40 is assembled to the hinge 30 by means of these pins 36.
In Figure 3 and Figure 4, the detailed view of the front panel 10 where the hinge 30 is placed on the seat portion 20 is illustrated from the front surface 12 where the assembly is realized, and it is illustrated from the rear surface 14 which is opposite to the front surface 12. On the seat portion 20, the housing 28 is formed by means of a bending which is compliant to the outer dimensions of the hinge base 31 . In the present application, the housing 28 determines the limit of the bearing portion which is required in order for the hinge 30 to seat in a safe manner. In alternative applications, the bearing portion 26 can be obtained by means of more than one housing 28 or without any housing 28 form and it can be obtained only by the allotment of a certain part of the seat portion 20.
Inside the bearing portion 26, there are one each holes 24 at a distance corresponding to the assembly openings 32 of the hinge 30. As can be seen in Figure 1 , a fastening element 50, for instance a bolt fixes the hinge 30 to the front panel 10 by passing through the assembly opening 32 and afterwards by passing through the hole 24.
Inside the bearing portion 26, there is one each cutout 25 at a distance corresponding to the hooks 34 of the hinge 30. The cutout 25 is a hole where the hook 34 can enter. The cutout 25 is obtained by the cutting and removing of a piece in rectangular form at the
bearing portion 26. The hook 34 seats into the cutout 25, in other words it seats onto the bearing portion 26 cross section, it applies a pressure downwardly from above by means of the loads which itself and the door 40 apply. Some of the loads Fd the door 40 applies on the hinge 30 are illustrated representatively in Figure 2. For instance, on the upper arm 35, the door load Fd applies a pressure force downwardly from the upper pin 36 periphery; in the lower arm 35, the door load Fd applies a pressure force from the lower arm 35 towards the front panel because of the rotation moment Md. The door load Fd is also downwards in the upper and lower hooks 34. The amplitude of the door load Fd on the front panel 10 changes with respect to the opened-closed position of the door 30 and with respect to the force the user applies to the door 30, the door load Fd is maximum when the door 30 is orthogonal to the front panel 10. In this orthogonal position, in order to prevent the door load Fd deforming the front panel 10 seat portion 20, a groove 21 encompassing the cutout 25 and the upper hole 24 is formed on the bearing portion 26. In the lower part, an auxiliary groove 23 is formed circularly so as to encompass the hole 24.
The groove 21 , 23 is in the form a cross section similar to U. In alternative applications, it can have a different cross section. The forms with a curve are preferred because of their advantage in stress distribution. (For instance, S cross section, C cross section). A planar distance m is left between the periphery of the groove 21 , 23 and the hole 24. Thus, when door load Fd is applied, it is ensured that the hole 24 can enlarge up to the groove 21 within an applicable range. Since the groove 21 provides a higher spring coefficient with respect to the intermediate distance m, the door load Fd reaches the bearing portion 20 through the hole 24 by means of a flexible system in a serially connected spring characteristics with a small followed by a greater spring coefficient.
There is a depression 22 between the groove 21 and the auxiliary groove 23 so as to be between the bearing portion 26 limits. This depression 22 is cold formed to the front panel 10 by means of a mould. Thus, a pre-stressed area is formed inside the bearing portion 26 and resistance is provided against the door load Fd applied through the hinge 30. In the present application, the groove depth is equal to 2,2 mm ± 0, 1 mm. The distance m between the upper hole 24 and the groove 21 is minimum 4 mm and maximum 10 mm. The distance m between the lower hole 24 and the auxiliary groove 23 is between 3 mm -
4 mm. The auxiliary groove 23 width at the lower hole 24 periphery is equal to 2,4 ± 0,2 mm. The distance between the depression 22 in the center and the lower cutout 25 is equal to 8 ± 0,2 mm. The distance between the depression 22 in the center and groove 21 in the periphery of the upper hole 24 is equal to 16 ± 0,2 mm.
